Kenyan Safari adventure
We (a group of 7) had a great time with Dan at Nakuru and Masai Mara. The rest of the group and I thought that Dan was an amazing tour guide. He gave us lots of good, clear information whenever we asked, and was really good at spotting the animals. Also, when seeing lions etc, he never blocked the view of any other van/jeep. Twice, we helped two other jeeps who were stuck in mud. I would highly recommend super eagles travel services for a Kenyan safari. A special thanks to Bildad from the office who was very helpful in providing all the information before we arrived in Kenya.

Simply the best.
As this trip was booked by a family member, I did not have any direct liaison with Serengeti Smile. However, I have been informed that the service received from Eric the agent was fantastic. He was prompt at responding to any and all queries, and informed our itinerary with his sound knowledge.
The safari itself was absolutely amazing thanks to our guide Champion. I don’t know where to start because he was fantastic! His energy and enthusiasm each day was second to none. His knowledge was impressive and on the rare occasion he wasn’t sure of the answer to the multitude of questions we were throwing his way, he always ensured that he found out for us. Champion made this the trip of a lifetime and was a key part in happy memories that will last forever.
Make sure you specifically ask for Champion when booking your safari with Serengeti Smile, you won’t regret it.

Incredible experience - Champion in the best!!
Champion - Where do I start…a massive thank you to our tour guide Champion, he made us feel so welcome from the get go, and incredibly safe at all times. He was very engaging and full of energy. Our dream was to see the migration which he made come true, he was extremely patient and consistent throughout. Safe to say he was our good luck charm as we got to see every animal!! He exceeded our expectations and we were beyond grateful, our trip would not have been the same without him. I would recommend to anyone, do not hesitate to book him, you won’t be disappointed. Thank you again for an unforgettable experience.

Once in a Lifetime
The safari trip was kindly gifted to us so I cannot comment on the communication, however the service has been 5 star from the moment we landed. Taxi waiting for us at the airport, travelling across Tanzania to sort local SIM cards and grab lunch boxes for a long journey ahead and welcoming us with open arms.
The safari itself was a once in a lifetime experience that everyone should experience in their lifetime. Seeing animals in their natural habitat roaming free is not something to take for granted and cannot be explained with words. We were so lucky to see the Big 5 in our trip and it’s an experience I will never forget.
As for our guide, Champion, words cannot fully describe the experience. Incredibly enthusiastic and loves his job, not only keeping everyone entertained with his cheeky sense of humour, but knowing exactly where to be to find the most amazing sightings and give you a full background of every animal and area found in Tanzania. If I ever have the privilege to come back and do this all over again I would not hesitate to make sure I can have him as my guide again!

fantastic holidays in Tanzania!
My vacation in Tanzania is wonderful and full of adventures! I did 10 days of safaris in various areas, such as Arusha National Park, Serengeti Park, Ngorongoro Crater, Lake Manyara and Tarangire Park! I saw a wide variety of wild animals that fascinated me, such as elephants, lions, leopards, cheetahs, giraffes, buffaloes, antelopes (gazelles, impalas, water bucks, elands, dik dik), zebras, hippos, crocodiles, rhinos, wildebeest, etc. I also saw a wide variety of birds. I saw all the preparations for the migration of thousands of wildebeest on the Mara River. I also visited a Masai village and learned about their customs, which I loved! The guide, named Zadock, was extraordinary and an excellent professional, always friendly and kind, available, concerned about our well-being and interested in showing us all the animals and beautiful landscapes and always explaining the wildlife as well as the customs of the people of Tanzania. Thank you Zadock for everything, you're fantastic!

The only company I'll ever choose for a Safari
This was truly a life changing experience. I don't normally write reviews that are this long, but this experience deserves a full spotlight.
The vehicle:
The safari vehicle is incredibly comfortable. It has about 7 seats and room for luggage. We were only 3 which was nice because we could jump from seat to seat for the view. The seats are comfortable and the vehicles are cleaned each day. The roof opens up for you to be able to get a better view of the incredible things you'll see. There are outlets, cupholders compartments and pockets and many other things to make this your 4 day home. Each day you have a meal at your lodge and then a lunch is packed for you. This tour company packs real delicious food so you sit down to eat rice and meat and vegetables each day.
The guide:
Ben!!! He was the perfect guide- really the best guide I've had on a tour led activity. His knowledge of the animals and their behavior shows just how many years he's spent observing everything. He is fun and treats you like family. He himself has fun on the safari, but he takes safety very seriously so there are difficult patches of road in which he concentrates- a point we really appreciated. He went above and beyond by taking us to places to make our hades, to see viewpoints and even to take care of our endless need for bathroom stops.
The parks
Honestly this Is a must do experience. Many would prefer longer Safari's and it is true that more days in the Serengeti can help you have the chance to see more animals, but we were so happy with the 4 days. It was just long enough to see 4 of the big 5 and a ton of other incredible animals, but it wasn't so long that we got restless being in a car for so many days. The parks will change your life. The facts you learn will give your life more meaning and purpose.
The company:
I spent a long while researching safari companies and finally chose samora explorers for one important reason - I sensed that we would be treated like family. We are three 20 something girls traveling alone and I wanted us to have a safe feeling like we are family. That is why I chose this company and that is exactly how they have treated me: like family. Iddy was so so helpful. After months of communication he never got frustrated. He always went above and beyond researching things and even giving me discounts and reminders. The company is through, family oriented, trustworthy, and so super helpful. There is no other company if rather have my adventure with!!!
Look no further, choose this company!!

THE BEST TRIP OF MY LIFE
Our safari in Tanzania was amazing. We visited Tarangire, Lake Manyara, Serengeti and Ngorongoro. It has been an unforgettable. The lodges we have stayed in were fantastic, specially the staf!!!!
And the best part of the trip was our guide, Rajabu, a local guide that speaks spanish and knows a lot about the sabana.
Asante Sana!!!
